When Romantic Mountain Panoramas Become Sharp Memories
Written by the PanoramaKnife Team
The PanoramaKnife team in Switzerland has been successfully developing knives with mountain panoramas since 2012. In the interim, there are now over 80 different panoramas in Switzerland alone. But there are mountains and mountain lovers not just in this country, but also all around the world. For this reason, we decided in 2016 to expand our concept internationally, and went looking for the world’s most beautiful mountain panoramas.
One of the largest, most natural and beautiful mountain regions in the world is in the USA – the Rocky Mountains. For Marco and Hans-Peter, both passionate team members at PanoramaKnife, it was clear: the Rockies deserve a PanoramaKnife!
So, in February 2017 they set off on their first trip to the USA. Their PanoramaKnife adventure started in Denver and took them over Breckenridge, Vail and Aspen right across the Rocky Mountains. On March 1, 2017, they were driving from Prove towards Salt Lake City when they suddenly had to stop. No, not because of a traffic jam, but because what they saw made their PanoramaKnife hearts beat faster... What a sunset, what a breathtaking panorama!
This first contact with Utah and the Wasatch Mountains not only left a lasting impression, but also resulted in the very first USA PanoramaKnife!
It was not easy to find the first potential customers for the Wasatch Mountain PanoramaKnife. These unique knives were still completely unknown in the USA. But that didn’t bother them; they were absolutely inspired by this stunning mountain range, and that’s why Marco & Hans- Peter only had plan A: To produce this knife!
Today, 3 years later, we are happy to say that we have found some wonderful partners to sell our first “USA baby” in Utah. In the interim, more products have been added, and we are extremely happy about this success. In addition, we supported Save Our Canyons Lone Peak Celebration with a PanoramaKnife.
Environmental protection is a matter that is very close to our hearts, which is why we also support a variety of organizations in Switzerland that work to protect the natural environment. Save Our Canyons is the first organization outside Switzerland that we have committed ourselves to support. We want the wonderful, wild natural environment of the Wasatch Mountains to be preserved for many years to come!
